Have Your Cake

You were my heartsong
when you were
little,
 
 
and you were my heartsong
when you were
big.
 
 
You were such a
feisty kid.....but a good
and honest one.
 
photo from internet
 
How you loved to travel
the world
when you got out of school.
I'll never forget how
you just quit your job and
traveled through
Europe for 3 months,
all by yourself!
 
 
You are called
Miss Jessi
by your students;
 what a privilege and honor
it is to teach.
 
 
The day can't go by
without hearing the song
that reminds me
of you.  ; )
 
 
Happy Birthday Jess!
 
Have your cake
and
eat it too!

DEAREST SHERI! First of all, and I've said this before, that you have a poetic streak in you that I hope and pray you continue to cultivate. Secondly, I wish your dear Jess a lifetime of joy in her marriage and her career of teaching. It has to be one of the most difficult jobs to perform each and every day, as I'm now on my 15th year.

God bless her and you, always dear friend.
